What are some of the best purchases of your life? (lemmy.world)

For me it has to be:

Helix mattress ($1,217). Sleep is great.
Home gym power cage & weights (~$1,000). Look good, feel good, get strong.
Netgear Nighthawk AXE7800 ($339). No more random, annoying internet disconnects/slowness.
Books ($0 @ library)
- "Ultralearning" - Scott Young (how to learn efficiently)
- "Enlightenment Now" - Steven Pinker (the world overall is improving)
- "The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing" - Taylor Larimore (how to invest)
PS5 ($500). So many great games like witcher 3, god of war, spiderman.

I'm searching for some more deep value purchases. Give me what you've got.

Do you have a link to home gym setup?

Ever since covid I'm not too keen on public gyms.

A Hydro-Flask brand water bottle. It makes the contents immune to all delta T. Very solid product, highly recommend.

I would love to hear some watch stuff, I've started getting into watches lately and have a Casio Duro on the way as my first collection.

I have a duro and a tough solar. I have worn the tough solar every single day since 2018 and have never had am issue. I've had people comment on how nice the duro looks.
For my money, you can not go wrong with Casio. Indestructible. Classic. Jeans and a T-shirt. Can't go wrong.
